Numbered Headings Among Confluence’s 2011 Highlights

Numbered Headings,  our very own Confluence plugin, is one of only 7 plugins to have made it to Confluence’s highlights of 2011 list! You’ll see it under ‘Incredible Add-ons’ at number 15.

Our plugin automatically numbers headings, any way you want and it’s fully compatible with the new editor in Confluence 4 (see it in action).

Numbered Headings is our contribution to Confluence’s rich library of free & open source plugins and we’re very happy about the 9,000 plus downloads but more so, about the overwhelmingly positive responds we’ve gotten from the community!

So thank you all for your input and support!
